Every movie pauses playing after approx. 1 hour and 20 minutes playback.

donald.flissinger · February 12, 2015, 2:37pm

I still can't find the problem, everything seems ok, but every movie stops playing at approx. 1 hour and 20 minutes, gives a spinning wheel at the left and resumes after couple of minutes.

After then it repeats every couple of minutes.
